Applying for Guns, Stores, and Ammunition
Description
Angus encloses a letter for the Secretary of War and thanks Hodgdon for informing him how to apply for the guns, stores, and ammunition for his men and for the defense of his post. He stresses the urgency of obtaining these articles since he is currently in a defenseless state. He also wants to know how many non-commissioned officers should be assigned to an artillery company.
